The investigations which the New York World
has made into the relation Of the labor question TO
next years political activities have evoked many
comments from prominent men OF both parties but
thus far too little attention seems to have been
paid TO one important phase OF the subject. The
labor vote Is 80 commonly counted as In effect q
democratic VOTE that 1t has been cited by political
mathematicians as an Offset to the prohibition
vote, which they have put down as primarily re-
publican. This Is q dangerous way to calculate.
The labor vote is large one for instance in Penn
sylvania-or would be, II properly marshaled-and
yet lis detection from the democratic party would
have no appreciable influence on the result OF q
general election. The same may be said OF Massa-
chuSetts, and OF q dozen other States. In such
States as New York, New jersey, or Connecticut,
on the other hand, where the old parties are d.
vided by pretty narrow margin, the detection OF
the working people would make difference, and
large But outside of the big cities what Is the
proportion OF democratic TO republican working
men? The protective policy Of the republican party
has drawn into It a number Of work1ngmen,
which would astonish any Investigator who had
not witnessed the operation with his own eyes.
II poll were taken OF the adult male help In the
manufactures Of the interior of New York State,
for example, IL would be found that the tariff
question overlays every other In Importance In
the minds OF these men, and that party names
count for nothing when the protection issue Is
fairly joined in any campaign. The Butler vote
Of 1854 just about balanced the prohibition vote;
and yet, with the tariff kept as far as possible In
the background, the democratic majority was SO
slight to leave the result In doubt for several
days A labor party would also divert a c0nsid-
cradle vote, which, though naturally democratic,
was In 1884 cast for Blaine and the republican
ticket. 1t viii not be wise, therefore, to base all
estimates OF the effect Of organizing the labor
vote into solid mass on the theory that the DEM
ocratic vote would be the only one seriously de-
pleted thereby. The promise Of advantage is
doubtless TO the republicans, but many estimates
Of the extent OF the benefit seem misleading.

In Justice Hawkins court in London,
Eng, recently bigamy case was soon
settled. A poor woman was married
when she was seventeen and was de-
serted by her husband, a felon, after
the first baby was born. He had never
made any provision for her, and in the
intervals when he was not in prison he
used to come back to her whenever she
got situation and compelled her to
keep him. The poor woman thereupon
married q second husband, who under
took to protect her from the first
Husband No. l therefore gave her into
custody for bigamy. When all this was
proved Mr.. Justice Hawkins became
very excited, and declared he regretted
exceedingly that the woman had been
imprisoned one month awaiting trial.
His sentence was that she be i'm
prisoned for half an hour. The an
nomcement was received with ap-
DlauSe.

CHANG YEN HooN, Chinese Minister,
sat for some photographs at Washing
ton the other day. He was accom-
panied by his interpreter and two or
three lady friends, who were anxious
to see the operation. His servant car
ried up to the operators room two or
three trunks and several smaller cases,
in which were ten or a dozen changes
of costume. The Minister was "done"
in each of these, and in as many differ
cnt positions. He wore a silk cap in
the center of which was large dia-
mond about the size of hazelnut.
The cap fitted so closely that the dia-
mond looked like huge star set in his
skull. Around his neck was a necklace
of three chains, each of which was
about yard long, composed of
precious stones, every sixth of which
was a diamond. His interpreter said
the aggregate value of the jewels
which adorned the person of the Minis
ter was about million dollars. Chang
Yen Hoon Is said to be the richest
man in China,

DURING the week ended March Is
5000, 900 was shipped from Washing
ton to the assistant treasurer at New
York and 100000 to the assistant
treasurer at Chicago to meet whatever
demand may be made for notes OF
small denominations. Most of the
shipments were in $40, $40 and S. sill
yer certificates and United States notes.
The Treasury was also issuing 81 and
81 silver certificates at the rate of $780,
600 day. 1t was said at the depart
ment that the present demand fol-
small notes was apparently fictitious
and was probably due to desire on
the part of certain timid bankers to Sc
cure them in large amounts for use in
the event of possible stringency Of
the money market.

Take Care of the Babies.

The great mortality among children
is very noticeable in the death rates OF
most American cities. 1t would be
greatly lessened if parents would use
some common sense. Babies are much
more susceptible to cold than are adults.
and yet mother will go out, herself
warmly clad from head to foot, and al
low her child to patter beside her on the
cold pavement in its little house shoes.
Another practice which should be pro-
tested against is allowing nurse to
stand near window with the babe in
her arms while she indulges her Curl
osity in looking at the passers-by. Many
baby has had an attack of Group from
the cold which radiated from the win
dow on the delicate little lungs or legs.
Even with double sash there is generally
cold air coming through the openings.
and the panes themselves, with the
weather at zero. chill the air in the close
vicinity. ty.-Detroit Tribune.

In spite of the fact that cholera has
been raging in the Argentine Republic
since last November merchandise from
the Rio Plata and Chill has been
steadily brought into New York and
distributed over the country with no
attempt at precaution on the part of
the quarantine authorities. Now that
the winter is over shipping brokers,
customs officials, longshoremen and
others who are brought into direct per-
sonal contact with this merchandise
are alarmed over the inactivity of the
health officials.

THE Treasury Department has af-
firmed the action of the Collector oi
Customs at New York in assessing duty
at the rate of five cents per pound on
certain third-class wool noils, which
the importers claimed cost less than
twelve cents per pound, and was,
therefore, dutiable at the rate of two
and one-half cents per pound. A sub
sequent examination showed that the
cost of the noils exceeded twelve cents
per pound by small fraction.

JOHN PILKINToN, of Wilson, N. Y.
was out on Lake Ontario taking in gill
nets when the recent terrible storm be-
gan. He was driven past his harbor
and after struggle of eight hours in
his frail boat made Olcott safely. His
friends had telegraphed to that village
to light the lamp in the lighthouse and
he sighted it. No doubt it saved him,
for had he beached his boat it would
have been dashed to pieces against the
ice powders which were formed along
the shore.
